@Plasma If stablecoins are to be used 'like cash', the key is not to add another universal chain, but to make settlement a predictable assembly line: who pays, when it is determined, how to reconcile, and who will cover it when problems arise.

The idea of Plasma is very much like pulling stablecoins back from 'on-chain assets' to 'payment tools'—first clearing the friction in the process: using Reth to ensure EVM compatibility, lowering access and migration costs; using PlasmaBFT to push finality to sub-second levels, turning 'uncertain waiting' into 'confirmation equals settlement'.

More critically, it is about rearranging costs and experiences: USDT gas-free transfers, gas mechanisms prioritizing stablecoins, essentially removing the threshold of 'having to buy a volatile coin before transferring stablecoins', allowing stablecoins to return to their intuitive nature.

On the security front, introducing Bitcoin anchoring is not about storytelling, but rather about providing a stronger external endorsement for the neutrality and censorship resistance that payments and institutional settlements care about most.

The target users are also very clear: the daily transfer needs in high adoption markets, as well as the settlement scenarios for payment/financial institutions—once these scenarios are operational, the value comes more from sustained settlement volume and real usage, rather than short-term hype.
